As is Raine's nature, the answer was to save both!

The system could search for Avril and White's position, and at the moment of the fall, Raine redirected himself and quickly tried to reach the nearest Avril.

Avril was floundering in the waves when suddenly her hands felt the lifebelt that Raine had flung in front of her.

"Grab the lifebelt!" Raine shouted, seeing Avril had already clung to the lifebelt and immediately sailed in White's direction.

The sea repeatedly flooded Avril's eyes, and Avril saw White in the water in the intermittent vision. In the nick of time grabbed White by the tail and pulled him to her, "White!"

Both Avril and White were still submerged in the water. But the rope catching the lifebuoy to the hull, at least they were not separated.

Seeing the next big wave was about to hit, Raine hurriedly changed course and sprinted for the island in the distance.

After an unknown amount of time, Raine finally broke out of the reef area and took Avril and White into the confines of the island. He was heading for the beach.

Exhausted when the bottom of the boat touched the hard land, Raine looked back as Avril was carrying White and coming towards him.

"Captain, we made it, we made it! We're not dead!"

"What's to be happy? It was too easy for me...." However, not waiting for Raine to put on good speaking, his vision faded uncontrollably.

At the last moment, Raine saw the storm raging in the distance, dark clouds overwhelming the sky, and the wind howling with fury. It seemingly becomes even more furious at Raine's escape.

Raine sneered, "Fuck God, this time, I won ......"

........................

When Raine opened his eyes again, the horrible storm was gone. The place was still blue sky, blue sea, sunny beach and...

"Eh? Why am I in the sky?" Raine hurriedly checked his situation and found that he was stuck in a tree.

The next thing Raine knew, he found himself being pulled down and hitting the ground in one fell swoop.

This was the first time Raine had touched the ground since his rebirth, and he didn't expect it to be so enthusiastic.

Luckily the ground was soft, and the fall didn't hurt.

"Whew." Avril exhaled a long breath, hands at her waist, a rope still tugged in her hand, "Captain, I finally got you down from the tree. I'll push you out to sea after I take a break."

White looked at Raine on the ground, wagged his tail excitedly, and circled him.

Raine doesn't want to deal with this guy who values sex over the master. He took his eyes off the two and looked around.

He was already on this legendary island, which was a bit of a stretch to call an island. It was less than half the size of the two islands before it and the size of a football field.

But!

On this island, however, many trees were growing. After the storm raging last night, many fell to the east and west. But instead, they made the thick trunks even more striking.

"Timber!" Raine's eyes were now full of chunks of timber!

Raine couldn't wait, "I'm sure it's a blessing to have survived the disaster! Quickly, gather up all this timber!"

"Aye, Captain! That, I'll go ahead and make a stone ax." Avril was saluting Raine. She looks combative!

Before long, there was the clunking sound of logging in the woods, which was the most beautiful music to Raine's ears. He enjoyed it with immense relief.

After a week of felling, Avril had cleared the grove clean.

Raine immediately opened his information panel.

Host: Raine

Vessel: Small single plank boat

Crew Size: 2

Ship Speed:? (Open for details)

Combat Power: 1.5

Crew Size: 2

Load Capacity: 6.3/300 (kg)

Evolution Progress: 142.3/50 (wood) currently evolvable

"Over a hundred and forty timbers! Hahahahaha, it's a real fortune!" Raine was in an extremely relieved mood. It seemed that the storm and the reef area were worth it!

Raine's hull was now covered in wounds, but none of that mattered. He could build a new ship from scratch!

"Evolve!"

At the command, the system immediately began to build the next level of the ship.

Right next to Raine, the beginnings of a ship were rapidly being completed. Avril looks on in shock.

The keel, the hull, the dragon tendons, and the deck... were all being completed quickly, and before long, a double-decker wooden ship about four meters long had been built.

"Captain, this, did you build this?" Avril said in shock.

"Or else? You and White go play off to the side and see what other useful supplies." Raine had no time for her now. Let's get these two guys out of the way.

Consciousness and supplies were transferred, the recovery of the single plank wooden ship was soon complete, and as Raine's consciousness fused into the new hull, it suddenly felt different.

"Wowza, I'm four meters now! At least a meter and a half wide! I'm now two decks too! I can't believe I have a steering wheel now! Look at the carving, hmmmmmmmm, that's more like a boat!"

"Right, open the message template again!" With a new ship, Raine naturally had to look at her new data.

The system was quickly presented in Raine's mind.

Host: Raine

Vessel: Small double-decker plank ship

Crew size: 2

Ship Speed: 3 knots (open for details)

Combat Power: 1.5

Crew Size: 2

Load Capacity: 6.3/1000 (kg)

Evolution Points: 92.3/150

"Eh? Wait, why has my ship's speed changed? Open it up and take a look." Not bothering to look at the other data changes, Raine was the first to open the speed submenu first.

Power Equipment 1: Boat Oar*2

Power Equipment 2: Wooden Hand Crank Thruster

Power System: Manual Power

Boat Speed: Power Equipment 1: No statistics on boat speed. Power Equipment 2: Maximum boat speed is 3 knots (1 knot = 1 nautical mile per hour = 1.852 km/h). Actual speed is subject to the operator's operating effect

"Three knots is 5400 m/h! A bit slow. And Avril, that little minion with 0.5 combat power. It probably won't be able to reach the maximum ship speed for sure, but it's better than the oars!"

Customarily, new buildable items will appear when a ship is upgraded. Raine didn't forget this. He opens the list of buildable items again.

Perhaps it was because he had so few resources, but the only new items that appeared were the canopy, the live bunker, and the mast he longed for.

However, now that Raine was over 90 timbers rich. Just 60 timbers short of upgrading to the next level, he was a little hesitant to use them on these accessories.

"Definitely, evolution is the main focus, I'm not particularly short of wood at the moment, and these aren't really needed urgently, so I might as well wait and see." Raine mulled over the situation.

Also, Raine suffered some losses during the storm.

The fish skin bottom membrane was in a bad state of disrepair. It looked like it would have to be reworked as the boat's hull had increased in size, requiring an increase in the membrane area.

The water purification equipment has long since flown off to who knows where, but good thing there's still wood here, and with some more fish skin, we can make a new one... No, we can make two, just in case!

That said, there is still a need to fish!

"Captain!" Avril came running over with White in tow with gusto, saying, "We've found fresh water!"

There were plants on the island, so naturally, there was fresh water. Raine thought about it and said, "Yes, we lost water purification equipment. Since there's some here, then there's no need to rush. This island is in a treacherous location, shouldn't be many people coming. Let's develop here for a while."
