(Two in one) One commander, two commanders, three commanders, four big pig hooves……
…
“Congratulations to the host for successfully opening the appearance repair subsystem! The system function has been completed. Please choose whether to take effect immediately.” The system’s operation prompt sounded in Lu Liran’s mind.
Lu Liran chose to confirm without any hesitation.
“Okay host, the facial repair subsystem has been started, scanning the host’s facial environment.”
“The host’s current facial environment: S-level burns occupy one-third of the total facial area, and there are six injuries caused by A+-level war machines.”
“Host facial repair difficulty: S+”
Lu Liran frowned slightly and asked the system coldly in his mind: “Skip these and tell me directly whether it will be effective?”
“Of course!” the system said earnestly, “These are the basic detection steps of the subsystem and must be completed. Only after the detailed detection is completed can a repair plan be formulated according to the host’s personal situation.”
“Don’t worry, the repair process will not take up the host’s time and body, just like repairing the host’s old body’s illness before. The system produces it, and you are guaranteed to be happy!” The system tried its best to promote, and opened its mouth.
Lu Liran raised his eyebrows slightly but did not respond. The system was afraid of wearing out the host’s patience. He quickly read through the background subsystem test report line by line, and finally highlighted the key points and said:
“Don’t worry, host. The repair progress will be completed automatically in less than forty-eight hours at most. We also have a one-hour after-sales guarantee. If the host is dissatisfied in any way, we can make fine-tuning unconditionally.”
Lu Liran’s mouth twitched, it sounds very unreliable.
“I only have one request…” Lu Liran narrowed his eyes slightly.
“Understand, understand, understand. Restore your original appearance! Host, don’t worry! The system works and is absolutely reliable.” The system boasted, its voice full of excitement, as if it was more excited than Lu Liran himself.
Lu Liran exhaled. It was only forty-eight hours. As long as he waited patiently for another forty-eight hours, it would be two days in the blink of an eye for him.
Lu Liran said nothing, and there was no change in the expression on his face. However, Ke Ji could see that he was more relaxed and excited than before.
Ke Ji raised his eyebrows slightly, he was curious, but seeing that Lu Liran had no intention of sharing, he didn’t ask any more questions.
Lu Liran tied the dried Mobius moray eel hanging on a tree branch to the roof of the sloping shed. The dark green fluorescent fish skin was indeed particularly bright at night.
Although they don’t need a night light.
Lu Liran got into the sloping shed and called to Ke Ji: “Just put the sail there. Get some rest early. Tomorrow, let’s get up early and start working on the ship again.”
After he finished speaking, he glanced at the sail he placed next to him and sighed softly in his heart.
We’re sorry for MTLers or people who like using reading mode, but our translations keep getting stolen by aggregators so we’re going to bring back the copy protection. If you need to MTL please retype the gibberish parts.
This sail was indeed more troublesome than he thought, but it was indispensable. It was the first major difficulty to be overcome tomorrow morning.

“Good night.” He whispered.
Ke Ji smiled slightly and replied: “Good night.”
Lu Liran glanced at Ke Ji and saw that after the other person said that, he seemed to have nothing else to say.
He pursed his lips, hesitating a little.
—— What happened to the promise to say that every day before you go to bed? It’s only the second day and you’ve already forgotten?
“What’s wrong? Is there anything you want to tell me?” Ke Ji asked upon seeing this.
Lu Liran stiffened slightly, he pinched his fingers, and said dryly: “No, go to bed early.”
He lay down somewhat depressed, he turned his back and closed his eyes, counting His Excellency the Commander in his mind as he tried to fall asleep——— one commander, two commanders, three commanders, four big pig hooves…
“I like you.”
Lu Liran suddenly opened his eyes, and heard the thin rustling sound of Ke Ji behind him, as if he had just pulled away to lie down.
He understood somewhat —— Ke Ji quietly said those words while he was asleep. It turned out that even the dignified commander would be shy and embarrassed.
Lu Liran curled up his lips and decided to quietly pretend to be asleep from now on.
Ke Ji also laughed softly, silently where Lu Liran couldn’t see.
Of course he knew what Lu Liran was waiting for just now, but he also wanted to see what the other person would do if he mistakenly thought he had forgotten. He also wanted to know if the other party would be surprised if he suddenly heard those words again after he pretended to be asleep and ignored him.
Now Ke Ji saw the joy that Lu Liran thought he had hidden well, and smiled. Since Lu Liran thought this was a benefit and habit after “falling asleep”, it would be as good as what he thought.
One of the two pretended to be asleep and thought he knew a little secret, while the other adapted and turned this into an exclusive love affair between them.
After hearing the four words he wanted to hear, Lu Liran quickly fell into a deep sleep, and his breathing became long and gentle.
He unconsciously turned over again, his face pressed against Ke Ji’s back, and he curled up slightly as if he felt cold.
The temperature at night at the beach can be as low as 20 degrees Celsius, and the clothes on the two of them are always half wet. The sea breeze blows, and the body temperature is sometimes even lower.
Seeing this, Ke Ji stood up quietly, he picked out a few dark-burning stones and large pieces of wood from the bonfire, and spread them around the shed, so that the temperature could rise several degrees.
He took Lu Liran’s halfway braided sail and continued to braid it according to Lu Liran’s braiding method just now.
Dry branches and dead leaves continued to be added to the bonfire, and the moon slowly sank above the treetops from a high altitude. Ke Ji patiently made up the whole sail, and finally took a piece of fishing net to tie it up, lest it would be loosened in a few moments by the bumps of the waves.
After he finished doing this, Ke Ji warmed himself up by the campfire. After the midnight cold and dew on his body were dissipated by the campfire, he got back into the shed.
Lu Liran opened his eyes sensitively, and when he saw it was Ke Ji, he returned to his sleepy state in a second, he turned around, and fell asleep again with a peace of mind.
Ke Ji laughed when he saw this, and was extremely pleased with Lu Liran’s completely trusting appearance.
He tiptoed closer, then carefully observed the other person’s reaction. Seeing that the man didn’t seem to notice anything, he curved the corner of his mouth and carefully and reverently left a soft kiss on the corner of the man’s month.
“Good night.” He whispered in a breathy voice, and then carefully lay back beside Lu Liran.
Within a few minutes, Ke Ji was so tired that he fell into a deep sleep.
Lu Liran quietly opened his eyes and turned over. He chuckled silently and pursed his lips slightly. As expected, Ke Ji would be shy.
…
…
The next morning, Lu Liran woke up from his sleep. He got out of the shed and saw the sail that had been neatly braided. It was even wrapped with a piece of fishing net as a precaution, and used bark fiber as a rope at the bottom and several strips were twisted and tied tightly.
Lu Liran blinked and immediately looked at Ke Ji.
Yesterday, when he was half asleep and half awake, he saw Ke Ji go back to the shed. He only thought that the other person got up in the middle of the night to solve his personal needs. He never expected that Ke Ji had quietly taken care of the most troublesome sail.
Ke Ji also got up at this moment. He looked at Lu Liran with a smile, looking like he was asking for praise: “I followed your example, is it okay? Isn’t it bad?”
Lu Liran was both amused and helpless. Who would rush to make up the sails? What were you planning, were your hands pricked with wooden thorns?
He thought, then he paused and suddenly understood something.
Lu Liran took a gentle breath, his chest felt warm, his eyes swept over Ke Ji’s hands, and asked: “Have your hands been pricked with wooden thorns?”
“Not bad. Rough skin and thick flesh.” Ke Ji smiled.
He stretched out his two hands and raised them in front of Lu Liran’s eyes. With a face that could be recognized as a beautiful Omega without any sense of inconsistency, he acted innocently: “Maybe you can help me take a look?”
The corners of Lu Liran’s mouth curved slightly, and he felt a little embarrassed. He glanced at him hastily and said: “Didn’t you say that your skin is rough and your flesh is thick? Then it should be nothing.”
Ke Ji：“……”
How does it feel to choke on your own words? That’s it.
Lu Liran tilted his head to hide his smile, he coughed slightly and said: “The live broadcast is on.”
He took out the drone and let it fly, and the live broadcast room was opened simultaneously.
[Good morning, anchor! ! We are going on a long voyage today, right?]
[The time to witness the miracle has arrived!]
[I want to see what the anchor’s boat looks like. Now it just look like two rows of bamboos build up, it doesn’t look like a boat at all]
The live broadcast room opened, and thousands of people poured in as soon as he opened it, all seeming to be waiting for him to build a boat.
Lu Liran raised his eyebrows slightly, and when he saw this, he went straight to the point: “As I said before, our ultimate goal today is to set sail.”
“The sail has been completed, thanks to the snail girl’s hard work last night.” Lu Liran showed Ke Ji’s handiwork and said with a slight smile, “It also looks pretty decent.”
“What’s left for me to do is to first create a cross structure to connect the two rafts that were set up yesterday. But before that, there is one more thing that needs to be considered in advance——”
“The finished bamboo boats are not light in weight, so before connecting them together, I have to make a simple bottom roller device to help the final launch. This device can be scrapped at one time. It doesn’t have to be too elaborate, just usable.”
As Lu Liran spoke, he moved a few long bamboos that had not been used before and placed them neatly on the beach near the bamboo raft.
Wood is used as the main material of the cross structure, connecting two bamboo rafts and resting on those long, smooth bamboos.
They tied a bamboo tube at the end of the bamboo raft with many fibers. Lu Liran and Ke Ji worked together to insert the rough sail completed last night into the bamboo tube and secure it.
“The sail is fixed and the bamboo raft is connected. The next thing to do is to use the rudder to control the direction. Without it and the sail, we would just let the waves drift with the tide at sea.” Lu Liran exhaled.
Making the paddle was a bit troublesome. Lu Liran split a coconut tree that had been knocked down by a tropical cyclone in half, flattened one half, smoothed the edge of the bark at the hand, and then used the tip of a dagger to drill a small hole at the end.
The small hole is used to tie together another horizontal piece of wood, and then many branches are used as fixed brackets to tie it together. In this way, the shape of a paddle is formed.
It can be used as both an oar and a rudder to cope with the waves of the Barents Sea.
Lu Liran removed the roof of the sloping shed and used the strong herringbone structure on it to reinstall it on his catamaran.
This herringbone rack is used to fix the newly made oar.
Lu Liran brought a lot of extra coconuts, which were also tightly tied to the inside between the two rafts.
“These coconuts are very useful. They can provide coconut water as a fresh water supply. Second, the milky white coconut meat inside can also provide rich protein. Moreover, the bit of pulp mixed with coconut oil obtained by smashing the coconut meat can also protect the skin from inflammation caused by being soaked in sea water and being exposed to strong sunlight.”
“The level of sunlight at sea is not – at all – the same as on the islands, and we’ll need to be on it when the time comes.”
Those amazing coconuts… Thanks for the update 🤣❤️🤣❤️🤣❤️
Coconut cococococonut. The most amazing plant in this novel. I wonder when will luliran repair his appearance? Maybe it’s a gradual repair instead of those one-shot repair type.
Thanks for this chapter ~~~
lmao so true, coconut = the best fruit xD Also after rereading the synopsis for the 564757934th time I have come to the conclusion that during their travel at sea there will be a rainstorm that do the WHOOSH WHOOSH WHOOSH!!! And tada face reveal!
