Xia Ning didn't sleep much that night. If the cave collapsed, she had to be ready to escape at any time.

Listening to the sound of waves crashing against the shore outside the cave, which sounded like ten thousand horses galloping, Xia Ning could imagine how terrifying and dangerous the sea was.

The group chat was filled with all sorts of SOS messages.

The small boat was capsized by the waves.

They finally managed to find refuge on a small island, but the boat and the island were completely submerged.

Hidden in the rainforest, he was hit in the leg by a large tree that was broken by a strong wind.

...

In short, the low-key players each have their own ways of escaping danger.

The players who cried out in despair each had their own unique misfortunes.

Xia Ning wrapped herself in her thermal blanket and poured herself a cup of hot coffee.

In the middle of the night, a crashing sound was heard outside the cave. It was unknown whether the original owner of the cave had returned to escape the storm.

Xia Ning had no intention of getting out of the car to check, nor did she plan to give up her temporary shelter.

She rolled down the car window, and a crossbow was placed on the windowsill, ready to fire.

Fifteen minutes later, the crashing sounds outside ceased, but the wind continued to howl.

Xia Ning guessed that the animals outside the cave had been swept away by the strong wind.

She put away the crossbow, rolled up the carriage window again, and turned to her sister.

"Look, you don't have to endure the elements with me, how lucky you are."

The younger sister shook her fur.

"Are you cold?" Xia Ning lifted a corner of the blanket. "Come here."

To everyone's surprise, the little sister turned her bottom and curled up in the corner of the seat, snoring away.

Day 6 of rafting

Online users: 2181/2333

Xia Ning created 1 [Turbid Nutrient Solution] and 1 [Rotten Antidote].

The storm was still raging on the sea.

The dog system knew that the players were all avoiding the storm, and Xia Ning's last three feathers were also handed over to the daily task.

She thought that once the storm passed, she would go out to sea as soon as possible to open treasure chests and earn survival points.

Her current survival points are 166, which is much slower than expected.

Xia Ning wants to buy a new [Skill Learning Card] when this dungeon ends, to unlock more useful skills and replace the [Human Walkie Talkie].

The skill "Human Walkie-Talkie" is rather useless for Xia Ning.

One-way communication is too restrictive, but Xia Ning can communicate directly with trusted friends through the in-game [Friends Channel] private message.

Xia Ning thought about it and concluded that the biggest use of this walkie-talkie skill was to scare her sister, provided they were assigned to the same map.

Day 7 of rafting

The rain subsided.

Online users: 2095/2333

Xia Ning created 1 [Turbid Nutrient Solution] and 1 [Rotten Antidote].

Pharmaceutical talent ↓, Drug-making talent ↑

Xia Ning is preparing to continue her life as an overseas expat.

She jumped out of the car and stored the SUV and the rocks blocking the entrance into her spatial storage.

Two large trees fell at the entrance of the cave. Xia Ning swung her axe twice, and they turned into 10 planks. There were no palm leaves because the leaves and fruits had been blown away by the wind.

Xia Ning stood on high ground, observing the island after the storm through binoculars.

The dense rainforest has become sparse, as if it has been shaved. It is said that storms at sea can blow the island several meters away.

The island's animals were displaced, and many bird carcasses remained on the ground.

The survivors quickly carried away the corpses, turning them into nourishment for their lives.

Xia Ning had no time to be sentimental, to feel sorry for the world, or to shout "survival of the fittest." She walked along collecting wood and picking up feathers.

The roads were even more difficult to navigate after the storm, and Xia Ning also had to be careful of the tall, swaying vegetation.

When she returned to the shallows from the island's interior, she had enough wood to build the ark. She also saw various fish, corals, and scallops washed ashore on the beach...

And a resource chest.

Unlike the wooden barrels floating on the sea, this is a proper treasure chest, at least of purple quality.

Xia Ning rubbed her hands together.

It's here!

The sewage she had been collecting for several days finally had a purpose!

After practicing on the highway, Xia Ning's water-splashing technique has become increasingly professional.

However, for some reason, she poured three buckets of dirty water on it this time, but the mimic chest monster didn't react at all.

The treasure chest smelled so bad that even my little sister wouldn't go near it and ran away in a flash.

Strangely, Xia Ning, filled with suspicion, drew her large cleaver and used the tip of the blade to pry open the treasure chest lid from a distance.

Nothing happened.

After a flash of purple light, the resources in the treasure chest automatically fell into Xia Ning's backpack.

[Power Engine]

[Batteries x2]

[Mineral water x5]

[5 iron nails]

[Corn seeds x1]

Xia Ning had never opened a purple treasure chest so easily before, and then she saw the description of the treasure chest.

The somewhat attractive purple treasure chest, its guardian seemed to have sensed an evil aura and left beforehand.

Xia Ning: ...

That evil aura definitely refers to her!

What's wrong with the descriptions for this lousy game? They're either mocking her or portraying her as the main villain!

Not having to fight the mimics is much easier, but without the survival points provided by the mimics, Xia Ning feels a bit cheated.

Alright, now that we have the power engine, let's upgrade the Ark quickly.

Xia Ning opened the [Vehicle] interface, first laid the floor of the second layer, then set the [Power Engine] at the stern, and installed the [Battery]. She officially joined the ranks of players who row without oars.

【The Ark of the Phantom Princess】

Defense Value: 25

Attack Value: 5

Xia Ning stepped onto the wooden barrel, and proudly brandished her large cleaver: "Raise the sails, set sail!"

The skull sails fluttered in the wind.

In the afterglow of the storm, under the gloomy sky, amidst the slanting drizzle, a lone ark seemed like a drop of water merging into the vast ocean.

Not long after Xia Ning left the island, a small wooden boat passed by her and landed on the island that she had plundered a third of.

Five minutes later, Xia Ning saw the player's exclamation in the [Regional Channel].

Tai Shi Junjian: "I've encountered a pirate ship! Everyone be careful, there really is a pirate ship!!!"

"Pirate" Xia Ning: (￣_,￣ )
