The only white monster?

Meng Qingyin narrowed her eyes slightly. Could this barnacle monster have something special about it?

She crouched down and rummaged through her system inventory to find a screwdriver: "Bear with it, I'll help you get these barnacle monsters down."

The jellyfish monster's tentacles danced in the air: "Thank you, you're so kind."

Meng Qingyin reached out and started to pry it off, but the barnacles were sticking to her more tightly than she had expected, and it took her a lot of effort to finally pry one off.

During this time, the jellyfish was in so much pain that its tentacles thrashed wildly, nearly hitting Meng Qingyin's arm several times.

It felt that area was numb and painful, and asked tremblingly, "Is it all done? Have you cleaned them all up?"

“No, I only cleaned one off,” Meng Qingyin said. “And you better behave yourself, don’t slap me.”

The jellyfish monster's tentacles were as thick as an arm; she didn't want to get hurt.

The jellyfish monster felt like the sky was falling, but if these barnacle monsters weren't dealt with, things would only get worse.

"A short pain is worse than a long one," it said. "Then you can continue cleaning. I promise I won't take any pictures of you."

A guarantee is not very binding, and Meng Qingyin did not think that the jellyfish monster could remain rational under the intense pain.

Remembering something, she said, "I'm sorry to trouble you for now," and quickly tied the jellyfish monster's tentacles into knots with both hands.

Jellyfish Monster: "..."

Meng Qingyin continued cleaning, but her efficiency was too slow on her own, so she called Qingfeng and Qin Feng to help.

The three of them worked for an hour and finally cleaned all the barnacles off the jellyfish monster.

The jellyfish monster had already fainted from the pain.

Looking at the barnacles scattered all over the ground, Qingfeng suggested, "Let's cut off the flesh of these barnacles, dry it, and eat it."

Meng Qingyin's face showed a complicated expression: "Can this thing be eaten? Let's forget about it, we're not short of food."

Is this a barnacle monster that eats monster meat?

Forget it, she's not worthy of it.

Qingfeng didn't insist: "Then what should we do with these barnacles? If we throw them back into the sea, they'll attach themselves to other marine animals."

Meng Qingyin: "Then kill them and throw them away."

This way, barnacles can no longer harm marine animals.

She found a large hammer and smashed it down hard on the barnacle monster.

The hammer fell, crushing a group of barnacle monsters to death.

[You have defeated a barnacle monster and earned the Barnacle Medal!]

You have defeated a barnacle monster and obtained a barnacle shell.

You have defeated a barnacle monster and obtained barnacle meat.

Barnacle Medal!

Meng Qingyin quickly checked.

[Medal of Barnacles: The only white medal.]

The description was brief and didn't seem particularly special. She submitted it without hesitation.

At the same time, an announcement was made.

[Player "Mengmeng" has become the first to kill a barnacle monster, unlocking the barnacle badge. Players are encouraged to collect more!]

Rongniang, who loves almond butter: "Barnacle monster? Is that a sea monster?"

Bu Xia Ye: "I haven't encountered a single sea monster yet, while Boss Meng Meng has already killed the barnacle monster."

Xiao Bai: "I encountered a jellyfish monster! It keeps chasing my car!"

noven: "Kill it!"

Xiaobai: "But it's not hostile to me. I don't know why, but it keeps chasing me."

Mengmeng: "@Xiaobai, that jellyfish monster might be asking you for help. Check under its umbrella-shaped canopy for barnacles."

After a while, Xiaobai replied: "It really is! Its canopy is full of barnacles! Should I help clean it up?"

Mengmeng: "That's right, you can get the Barnacle Medal by killing the Barnacle Monster."

Xiao Bai: "OK! I'll clean it right away!"

After passing on the message, Meng Qingyin stopped paying attention to the chat area and continued to check the other two items that had just been revealed.

Barnacle Shells: Have a chance to drop from killing barnacle monsters; one of the materials used to craft medals.

Meng Qingyin was overjoyed. Could medals actually be synthesized?

Where can I synthesize it?

She thought for a moment, then clicked into the "Medal Details" to check, and found a new "Synthesize" icon, but the icon was dark and clicking it had no effect.

Perhaps there aren't enough materials to unlock it yet?

Knowing that the medals could be synthesized, Meng Qingyin felt more confident. She put away the barnacle shells and continued to examine the [Barnacle Meat].

Barnacle meat: There is a chance to obtain it by killing barnacle monsters. It can be ground into powder and is one of the materials used to make desiccants.

What materials are used to make desiccants?

Meng Qingyin suddenly remembered her desiccant formula.

Is the desiccant formula used on this map?

The ocean map is surrounded by seawater, so the humidity is naturally higher than other maps.

Thinking about it that way, desiccant can indeed be useful on this map.

Meng Qingyin found the desiccant formula and examined it carefully.

[Desiccant Formula: 50g strong limestone powder, 20g barnacle powder, 20g iron powder, 10g activated carbon, 10g quicklime. The above raw materials must be precisely proportioned to make one dose of desiccant.]

Wow, there are quite a few materials needed.

But what is strong stone powder?

It's yet another material I've never seen before.

Oh well, desiccants aren't exactly in short supply anyway, I'll just look for them slowly.

Meng Qingyin smashed the remaining barnacles and obtained a total of [Barnacle Shells x3] and [Barnacle Meat x2].

A dense horde of barnacles only yielded this little bit of loot; the drop rate was pitifully low.

Moreover, only one barnacle medal was dropped, and that was when the first barnacle monster was killed. Does this mean that the medal can only be dropped when the first sea monster is killed?

If that's the case, then synthesizing the medal is necessary, but she doesn't yet know what other materials are needed to synthesize it.

A short while later, the jellyfish monster woke up.

Its first words upon waking were: "Is everything cleaned up?"

Meng Qingyin: "It's all cleaned up."

She had just untied the jellyfish monster's knotted tentacles, and the jellyfish monster waved its tentacles to express its gratitude to Meng Qingyin before swimming back to the sea.

Meng Qingyin thought for a moment and sent a message in the chat area: "Has anyone obtained the Barnacle Monster Medal? Under what circumstances did you get it?"

Xiao Bai: "I got it when I killed the first barnacle monster. It also dropped [Barnacle Meat], which can be used to make desiccants, but I don't think desiccants are necessary, right?"

Me, abroad: "Me too! I helped the jellyfish monster clear out a bunch of barnacle monsters, and I only got the barnacle medal when I killed the first one."

Lu Ming Shi Yi my: "I just checked my medal progress, and I already have 17 barnacle medals. Why can't I encounter any barnacle monsters?"

Half-Rolled: "I encountered a sea turtle and helped it get rid of the barnacles. You guys should keep an eye out for any marine life around the vehicle; they might be asking for help."

When the flowers fall, I'll see you again: "Actually, I feel that desiccants are still useful. The humidity at sea is too high, so it's not a bad thing to dehumidify."

"..."

Meng Qingyin withdrew her gaze. It seemed that the medal would indeed drop upon defeating the first monster.
