"Who's to say otherwise? I'm terrified even when I sleep at night, afraid that some monster from the sea will crawl up and drag me down."
"It's alright, it's alright. Even though the talent I awakened is the trashiest F-rank, it's still enough to put up a fight against monsters like Sea Monkeys."
"What if those things are pack animals?"
"Damn, if you don't know how to talk, just sew your mouth shut."
After continuing to scroll through some of the logs in the Communication Channel, Su Yu discovered that many people were deeply worried about what they would face after the seven-day novice period.
However, Su Yu couldn't change any of these situations for the time being; he could only take things one step at a time.
After exiting the Communication Channel, Su Yu casually scanned the nearby sea surface.
[10 meters below the sea surface here, there is a Black Iron Treasure Chest, but it cannot be fished without bait.]
"Damn it."
Su Yu, who had spotted a Black Iron Treasure Chest at first glance, couldn't help but feel a bit depressed. It was truly a case of a clever housewife being unable to cook without rice!
However, Su Yu noticed something at this moment: perhaps because his strength had improved significantly, he was able to gain more Insight into the information.
Previously, for treasure chests one to five meters underwater, Su Yu could only perceive the star rating of the chest, but he couldn't see what was hidden inside until the chest was hooked.
But now, having just consumed his second Grade 1 Marrow Cleansing Pill, Su Yu discovered that not only could he perceive the star ratings of chests one to five meters underwater, but he could also directly see the items hidden within them.
[3 meters below the sea surface here, there are five Two-star Wooden Treasure Chests, three One-star Wooden Treasure Chests, and two One-and-a-half-star Wooden Treasure Chests, containing one Common Energy Crystal, one Common Fishing Rod Upgrade Blueprint, and one Common Xiuchun Saber...]
In any case, within Su Yu's vision, the information about those sea treasure chests was no longer floating on the surface like before; instead, it appeared in 3D, with each chest occupying its own specific position.
[5 meters below the sea surface here, there is a Five-star Special Wooden Treasure Chest, containing a special item: a Disposable Common Troop Altar.]
[Disposable Common Troop Altar]
Description: The user can insert Common Energy Crystals into the Troop Altar to activate it. The more Common Energy Crystals inserted, the stronger the summoned troops will be. A maximum of ten common troops can be summoned at once.
Note: A maximum of ten Common Energy Crystals can be inserted. Before summoning, a keyword of no more than five characters can be entered to determine the general direction of the troops. The Troop Altar will be destroyed after one use.
"Holy crap, that's amazing."
When he scanned the information for this chest, Su Yu's eyes immediately lit up.
"Here goes." Su Yu quickly attached the Enhanced Bait and cast his line directly toward the location of the Special Wooden Treasure Chest.
After about two minutes, the Special Wooden Treasure Chest in the sea finally couldn't resist the bait dangling in front of it and took the hook.
"Whoosh." Then, the fishing rod in Su Yu's hand made a sharp sound as it was pulled into an exaggerated arc.
"This thing is much heavier than the other Five-star Wooden Treasure Chests!" As soon as he tugged on the rod, Su Yu realized that this special chest truly lived up to its name.
Fortunately, the fishing rod in Su Yu's hand had already been upgraded to the Black Iron Grade Fishing Rod; otherwise, there would have been a real risk of the rod snapping while reeling this thing in.
Soon, under Su Yu's violent and forceful tugging, the special treasure chest containing the Disposable Common Troop Altar was dragged onto the small island.
"Ding, your Double Happiness talent has automatically triggered. You have obtained Disposable Common Troop Altar *2."
At this moment, after Su Yu silently willed the treasure chest to open, two simple stone altars, each about a meter in height and width, appeared before his eyes.
Upon seeing these, Su Yu rushed into the Small Wooden Cabin, rummaged out twenty Common Energy Crystals, and quickly returned to the side of the altars.
Glancing at the holes on the altar, Su Yu immediately stuffed ten Common Energy Crystals into the ten slots of one altar.
[Ding, the Disposable Common Troop Altar has been replenished with an energy source. Please enter a keyword phrase of no more than five characters to confirm the troop summoning direction.]
"No food required." Upon hearing this prompt, Su Yu quickly entered the keyword phrase.
[Ding, the altar is summoning, please wait.]
[Ding, successfully summoned Undead race, Common Broadsword Skeleton *10.]
Following this prompt, Su Yu saw the altar he had filled with energy crystals erupt with a brilliant white light, and a squad of tall skeletons appeared directly within the glow.

As the white light dissipated, the disposable Common Troop Summoning Altar crumbled directly into a pile of rubble.
At the same time, the attributes of the Common Broadsword Skeletons appeared before Su Yu's eyes, and the ten Common Broadsword Skeletons knelt on one knee, respectfully lowering their heads toward him.
"Huh, there's even one with Silver-tier advancement potential—a top-tier find!" Scanning the ten Common Broadsword Skeletons kneeling on the ground, Su Yu finally discovered one that was a bit different from the rest.
As for the other nine, their attributes were mostly the same, with a maximum advancement potential of Black Iron Grade Elite Skeleton, but the last one was somewhat different; not only were its base attributes higher than the other nine, but its advancement potential was also far superior.

"From now on, you will be the captain of these nine." Glancing at the ten Broadsword Skeletons kneeling on the ground, Su Yu pointed a finger and spoke in a deep voice to the Broadsword Skeleton that possessed the potential to advance to the Silver Grade.
