Witcher: I Can Extract Everything

A week later, west of the Forgotten Sea area.

Blub! Blub! Blub!

On the calm sea surface, a long string of bubbles suddenly appeared.

Then, a mast slowly rose from the bottom of the sea, followed by the watchtower, then the deck, and the cabin.

Not long after, a white sailboat appeared on the sea surface.

It was a three-masted sailboat. Its appearance was not much different from that of an ordinary sailboat, but the strange thing was that the outside of the boat was wrapped in a layer of transparent film, as if it was contained in a large bubble.

On the deck, Heath looked up into the sky.

The dark clouds that had lasted for many days had disappeared, and the bright sunlight once again fell on the surface of the sea.

“It finally stopped!” Heath heaved a long sigh of relief.

He had thought that it was just a small storm, but he had never expected that the storm would last for a whole week. In order to avoid the storm, he could only activate the stealth mode of the Wizard ship.

Thinking of this, Heath could not help but feel a little distressed.

The unusual consumption of Magic Stones in the stealth mode, in a short week, had used up a total of 30 high-level Magic Stones, which was equivalent to a huge sum of 300,000 Magic Stones.

If the storm did not stop, Heath felt that he was going to go bankrupt!

‘Next time I go out to sea, I should hire some crew members,’ Heath reminded himself silently.

Although the Wizard ship could be operated automatically, it was still relatively dull and would only advance according to the planned route. If there were experienced crew members, they would usually be able to predict the storm in advance and change the route to avoid it…

“Eh?”

At this moment, Heath seemed to have sensed something and his nose moved.

There was a bloody smell, and it was very intense!

He frowned and looked straight ahead. The bloody smell was obviously coming from that direction.

“Could it be that… something happened over there?”

“Should I change the direction to avoid it?”

While Heath was hesitating, the sailboat had already sailed into the sea area in front of him. The magnificent scenery in front of him also attracted his sight…

The first thing he saw was…

Red.

What he saw was a bright red. The undulating waves and flowing seawater were completely dark red. It was like a red ocean. As far as the eye could see, there was no end to it.

The sea was densely packed with marine carcasses floating in this sea area. From small fish that were about an inch long to Giant Squid that was as big as a house, and even Giant Shrimp Crabs that were as tall as a small building.

The pungent smell of blood filled the air, indicating the origin of this sea.

This was a sea dyed red by fresh blood… Or rather, this entire sea was made of fresh blood.

“Medium-grade Blue-Striped Shark, high-grade Sea Tiger Belt Fish, high-grade Three-Headed Octopus… This is… a Giant Squid of the Rank 1 Sea King class? And a Sea King Giant Shrimp Crab?”

Heath was shocked.

Low-grade, medium-grade, high-grade, all kinds of sea demonized beasts were countless. Among them, Heath even saw a Sea King demonized beast, which was equivalent to a Wizard!

“I have to leave this place quickly!”

Without any hesitation, Heath quickly opened the navigation chart of the Wizard ship and adjusted the course to avoid this place.

There were so many sea monsters’ corpses, even the Sea Kings that were equivalent to Wizards were mixed in. No matter how this happened, Heath knew that there was definitely a danger ahead that he could not deal with.

“It can’t be…”

However, when Heath’s gaze fell on the navigation chart, his expression suddenly froze.

At this time, he realized that he had unknowingly deviated from the original course and entered the dangerous area where the sea tribes were.

Most of the areas in the ocean were not safe. There were a large number of seafolk living there. Once any foreign creatures entered, they would be fiercely attacked.

Wizards often used the ocean to go to various areas to search for materials. Because of this, several fierce wars broke out between the two.

It was said that after a certain Stigmata-level Wizard mediated, the seafolk and Wizards finally came to peace.

After that, the Wizards and the seafolk carved out some areas in the ocean for the Wizards to sail through. This was also the route.

According to the rules, Wizards could only sail through the route. Once they passed this area, they would be attacked by the seafolk. One had to know that the relationship between the two had never been very peaceful.

“Is it because of the storm before?”

“Forget it, now is not the time to worry about this. Let’s return to the route first.”

However, the trouble now was that the fastest route to return to the correct route was through this red ocean.

“What should I do? Should I speed up? Or take a detour from somewhere else?”

After hesitating for a second, Heath gritted his teeth and drew a few runes on the chart, controlling the Wizard ship to sail into this red ocean.

From the map, if he took a detour, he would have to travel for at least a few days, which would be even more dangerous. After all, this area belonged to the seafolk.

On the other hand, it would only take them two hours to return to the correct route through the red sea.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The sound of the sea corpses colliding against the hull of the ship was heard one after another. The Wizard ship stabbed into the pile of corpses like a sharp knife and slowly moved forward.

While controlling the Wizard ship to move forward, Heath looked around with a solemn expression.

“What kind of monster did this?”

While feeling nervous, Heath also stretched out his Wizard’s Hand and threw the sea corpses onto the ship for extraction.

[Beep, extraction successful. Spiritual Power +0.2]

[Beep, extraction successful. Agility +0.1]

[Beep, extraction successful. Obtained Giant Red-Striped Snail’s Life Sequence.]

[Beep, extraction successful…]

The vast majority of the sea creatures that roamed here were things that Heath could not come into contact with on land. Moreover, these were of a higher level. Basically, Heath could extract a large number of attributes from them.

Spiritual power, strength, agility, constitution, life sequence, and so on.

In particular, the two Giant Squid and the Giant Shrimp Crab were both comparable to Wizard-level Sea Kings. Each of them gave Heath a huge boost to his attributes.

“What a pity. If I had known earlier, I would have brought more spatial pockets…”

These sea creatures were treasures that were rarely seen on normal days. Their experimental value was very high. If they were brought ashore, they would definitely fetch a high price.

Unfortunately, there were too many of these materials. It was impossible to bring all of them back with the Magic Stone pocket that Heath was carrying.

Even so, Heath still tried his best to collect them.

He released his Wizard’s Hand one after another and grabbed the sea creatures onto the deck. After extracting them, he quickly cut off the most valuable parts of the sea creatures, such as the polyps of the Red-Striped Giant Snail, the parotid glands of the Silver Fish, and the claws of the Blue Seahorse…

His long-time accumulation of knowledge was fully utilized at this moment.

With the large amount of knowledge he had accumulated in Shadow Tower, he could easily identify the identity of each sea creature and the most valuable parts of their bodies, and quickly cut and harvest them.

He was like a high-speed machine, releasing and capturing the sea creatures, extracting and cutting the organs of the sea creatures, and capturing the sea creatures… The process was repeated.

Under such high-speed operation, at least three to five sea creatures were extracted and cut every minute.

This continued for more than two hours, and the end of the sea was already in sight.

“Phew! Finally, I’m out.”

Heath let out a long sigh and looked back at the red sea behind him. There were still a large number of sea creatures’ corpses there. The amount he had extracted and harvested just now was not even one percent of this sea area.

If he continued to extract the sea corpses, Heath believed that his strength would skyrocket and he would be able to earn a large amount of Magic Stones.

However, without any hesitation, Heath controlled the Wizard ship to sail out of the sea without stopping.

In Heath’s opinion, safety was the most important thing. To be able to create such a large number of sea corpses, it was definitely an existence that he could not deal with.

No matter how many Magic Stones he earned, he had to be alive to spend them.

The Wizard ship moved forward quickly, and the distant clean sea surface was already in sight.

However, at this moment.

Splash! A violent sound of water flowing could be heard.

Following that, a large whirlpool suddenly appeared at the bottom of the sea…
