Chapter 123 Desert Survival Day 13 (11) You’ve Become a Celebrity…

Yu Miaomiao only knew that poison arrows could stun mammoths, but she didn't know that if she shot it head-on, it would be knocked away.

Even though she was protected by her hat, the two monsters, which were nearly ten meters tall, would kill her after stepping on her back and forth a few times.

She looked at the time and saw that it was only 4 minutes until 12 o'clock. She only needed to delay it for another 4 minutes.

She looked back at the branch path she had just walked through. It was very narrow. If she ran back to the tree pile entrance immediately, the path she had cut was just big enough for her to walk slowly, and it would definitely get caught on her clothes and hat when she ran fast.

The sun hat might fall off, which would attract monsters. In addition, the noise around her would become smaller and smaller on the way back, so her movements would seem particularly loud. Once the two mammoths noticed her and chased her, they would directly flatten the forest to the ground, and she would have nowhere to escape.

Yu Miaomiao looked at the direction they were running. It was the young mammoth she had shot not far away, so the two mammoths had not noticed her at the moment. She just needed to stand at a safe angle and shoot them.

Where is safe?

Yu Miaomiao approached the river bank and her eyes fell on the lake three meters away.

The cunning catfish in the water were still doing their endless work of devouring each other. Occasionally, small bubbles appeared on the surface of the lake, pushing the willow branches floating on the lake back and forth.

This was not the first time she had seen objects like branches on the lake surface, and sometimes a few flowers, but it was obvious that the cunning catfish was not interested in these plants.

What about the wooden dragon boat in the backpack?

In the oasis section we walked through before, animals such as spotted hyenas only dared to catch fish on the river bank. Although they were not afraid of pain when being bitten, according to Yu Miaomiao's observation, they were not designed to wade in water. So the huge mammoths should not suddenly run into the water.

While she was thinking, she had already tested whether the fixed rope could be tied to the willow trunk, and took out the dragon boat from her backpack. She had taken this thing out and seen it at the expedition site last time, and it could be placed in the dark oasis.

With one hand, he tied the fixed rope firmly around his waist and legs, and with the other hand, he supported the dragon boat that he had mentally placed, making sure that half of it was in the lake and half was on the shore, so it was relatively stable.

The cunning catfish that were gnawing at each other seemed to be very dissatisfied with the wooden items and avoided them.

The mammoths didn't run fast, but they had long legs, and they were almost in front of her without taking a single step. She hurriedly tried to step onto the more than ten-meter-long dragon boat, and when her feet stepped on the river bank, she once again confirmed the situation in the lake.

After confirming that everything was OK, he raised the oars and pushed back. A faster-running mammoth had already reached the dead young mammoth.

Yu Miaomiao squatted on the boat and looked up at the giant mammoth that was several times bigger than herself. In front of such a large beast, she was as weak as an ant.

At this time, almost the entire hull of the dragon boat was submerged in the lake, but the fish in the water still did not react. It seemed that the dragon boat could isolate her presence very well.

Yu Miaomiao held the fixed rope in her hand, ready to catch the rope and pull the boat back as long as the fish in the lake reacted. If there was no time to pull, she would abandon this currently unused vehicle and jump back to the shore, but it seemed safe to stay in the boat for now.

When the mammoth ran over, it found that the young mammoth was dead. It suddenly became agitated and rushed around madly. Its steps were much more chaotic than before, raising a cloud of blood mist.

The stench of blood that was originally immersed in the grass blew into Yu Miaomiao's nose, and she covered her mouth to suppress the choking.

While venting its anger everywhere, it kept bumping around with its head and trunk. Not only did it knock down some of the woods that Yu Miaomiao had just walked out of, it even trampled the baby elephant's body on the ground into pieces.

Isn't it a mother's love for her child? How come she doesn't even care about her own child's corpse?

Haha, she really took their impatience as a sign of greed. In this apocalypse, monsters don't have any real emotions.

Yu Miaomiao sat quietly on the boat and watched it go crazy, just waiting for the time to draw a card, and then she would stand there and poison the two mammoths until they were knocked unconscious.

The next second, the mammoth, which was standing there frantically, began to swing its nose and sweep the ground with its two nostrils.

She was not far away and could see that it seemed to be sniffing something on the ground, and the blood on the ground was also sucked in by it. Oh no, it couldn't smell itself.

When did elephants develop such a keen sense of smell?

She kept a close eye on the movements of the giant beast, and another slightly smaller mammoth followed, following the mammoth that was sniffing the ground and sniffing the ground together.

Opening the system interface, there was less than a minute left. Yu Miaomiao held the rope with one hand and had already grasped the horizontal sword with the other hand, ready to chop them horizontally or vertically when they got close.

"Bang bang"

Without any warning, the two mammoths stomped their front and back feet one meter away from the shore. The stomping sounds were not obvious in the area, but they shook the nearby grass.

The lake water began to ripple with these vibrations, and the dragon boat shrouded in the shadow of the mammoth also began to sway.

While maintaining her balance, she held the fixed rope tightly with one hand and stretched out the other hand parallel to the lake surface. Just as her fingers appeared above the boat surface, the cunning catfish in the lake jumped out of the water immediately as if they were sensed.

Yu Miaomiao was quick-witted and avoided being bitten by the catfish's sharp teeth, but the lake water began to churn as if it had boiled in an instant.

Countless cunning catfish flipped their bodies excitedly, and the dragon boat began to sway from side to side. She had no choice but to hold the fixed rope tightly with both hands, fix herself firmly in the boat, spread her legs, and try to balance the boat with her feet.

The mammoth on the shore stepped towards her again, and the originally rolling lake water suddenly raised layers of waves. She could no longer stabilize the dragon boat by just relying on her feet to support the sides of the boat.

She couldn't just fall into the lake with the boat, as that would be like exposing herself to those sharp teeth.

Yu Miaomiao quickly used all his strength to pull the fixed rope and forcibly pulled the dragon boat back to less than one meter away from the shore. The mammoth on the shore shrugged and moved at the sound.

【System prompt: Please draw your gift pack card】

As the system prompt sounded, all movements around stopped, everything was silent, even the birds flying in the sky were suspended in mid-air.

Standing on the boat, Yu Miaomiao looked at the three strange yet familiar cards that appeared in her vision floating above the lake.

The first card on the right glows with a red flame.

Turning over the front of the card, it read: "Battle Food Resource Card."

The second one was a blue card with wavy patterns on it, and it said, "Technology and Life Resources Card."

Both cards are very similar to the card draws we've seen before, but they are more advanced.

The last card, a yellow card with a shooting star glow, was flipped open and read: "Assault Weapon Resource Card."

Today's drawn cards all seem to be good stuff.

Previously, as long as the card was bright, it meant that there would be good stuff, but the range of things given was very wide, and it was very likely that some things would not be used at the moment.

The contents of ordinary cards are also basic supplies, but today's are obviously better than ordinary cards, slightly worse than myth and treasure cards, and have a clearer direction.

She only had five minutes to choose, and she had immediately made the decision to choose the assault weapon resource card. After all, she had very few weapons at her disposal. The bird rifle was useful, but the bullets were insufficient. The shotgun had even fewer clips. Archery, while accurate, was not powerful enough and could be easily blocked by monsters.

Originally hiding in the exploration area to escape the sandstorm, Yu Miaomiao wanted to explore deeper this time...even to check out the boss.

What she had to solve now was how to deal with the two mammoths that were halfway down and had their front legs hanging.

Poison arrows are definitely useful, and elephant skin is not as hard as that of patrol monsters, but their noses seem to be very flexible and have an extraordinary sense of smell.

No, it's not necessarily the sense of smell. Yu Miaomiao moved her nose out of habit. In this expedition site, elephants all ate meat, so smelling the ground might not be based on the sense of smell. It could also be a system created to mislead the survivors. As for what it is, she can study it further when the time comes.

Now she just had to make sure the arrows she shot didn't bounce off.

Huabiezhi doesn't move, but does archery count as movement?

It shouldn't count, at least not before the arrow hits the elephant's body, because she can move her hands freely to choose cards, and her hands can naturally do other things.

To prevent the system from randomly selecting one for her, she had to select the assault weapon resource card and shoot the second arrow at the same time before the arrow she shot touched the mammoth's body.

The reason why she shot the one at the back first was that she was afraid that once the largest one was dealt with, it would give the smaller one space to hide. Once it recovered to normal, it would be difficult to hit it again.

After confirming the battle plan, Yu Miaomiao picked up the bow, checked several angles, took a long breath, and shot a poisonous arrow at the waist and abdomen of the mammoth farther away. There was a large area of ​​exposed skin on its outstretched front legs.

At the same time, select the Assault Weapon Resource Card and shoot the second arrow accurately at the larger mammoth in front.

The card interface disappeared, and the smaller adult mammoth fell to the ground, twitching weakly. The larger one used its tail to flexibly swing away the arrow before it reached its waist, and at the same time used its nose to shake off the third arrow that Yu Miaomiao shot at it.

Just in front of its sight, another arrow, with the momentum of breaking through the air, pierced its ear fiercely. The rage in its eyes flashed away, and then it fell to the ground.

After the card drawing was completed, the catfish in the lake continued to push the dragon boat with its spherical body, but it probably lost its arm target and swam less frequently than before.

Yu Miaomiao pulled the fixed rope and moved himself and the boat back to the shore. He stepped on the board, pushed off the ground hard, and landed steadily on the shore.

Long Zhou put away her backpack, put on her broadsword and walked to the two mammoths lying on the ground and making "whimpering" sounds. She chopped at their throats one by one, and finally gave each mammoth a knife on the big head to make sure they were dead.

The smaller mammoth had a barb on its side that pierced its back, with a small bag hanging under the hook. It seemed that it was just a treasure chest guardian monster.

The cloth bag looked different from the previous ones, the material was softer and it was embroidered with vine patterns.

When she opened the cloth bag, she saw a string of tears hanging from the corners of the eyes of the smaller adult mammoth at her feet. However, because she was too focused just now, she completely ignored this detail, and the tears solidified in its eyes, as if it had died with its eyes open.

Yu Miaomiao muttered, "Crocodile tears, you are here to seek death."

[Failed to trigger the Lucky trait. Mammoth meat*9, hide*12, bandages*3, primary medical kit*1, wool*3, tight leather pants*1, mineral water*2, stored in the system warehouse.]

She didn't plan to change her leather clothes now, but she wanted to change her shoes first. Her feet were sticky and uncomfortable to walk in.

Because she was afraid that the expedition would affect the battle, she turned off all the message reminders. Now she was taking a break and checking the messages, and she saw the message from Api.

"Is Pipi here? Sister Miaomiao, you've become a celebrity!"

"Is Pipi here? Sister Miaomiao, how come your agility increased so much during your expedition? Your strategy progress also increased by 4% compared to before. That's amazing."

Has her expedition progress reached 9%? Yu Miaomiao glanced at the percentage in her sight. It has now reached 10%, which should be because she just killed those mammoths.

The treasure chest guardian monsters later on will increase your progress by 1% to 2% almost every time you kill one, and even more later on.

"Pangpang: Just now, an old client of mine came to inquire about Sister Miaomiao. He asked if Miaomiao had some secret weapon that she kept hidden, which was why she was so powerful in the expedition area. I immediately felt that this person was not right. She must be from the Tiandihui. As expected, as long as I accept orders, I may run into someone from them. It seems that my identity can no longer be concealed."

"Is Pipi here?: That's right, it's impossible for Lulu to completely stop taking orders, or only make things for us. How can we bear so many injuries every day? It would be foolish not to use this unique skill to make money."

"Is Pipi here? Ziren is the same. He's been trying to hide his abilities, but he suddenly got inspired and went to exchange several good blueprints, including one for a shower curtain rack. If you want one, Miaomiao, I'll ask him to make one for you."

Yu Miaomiao was still worried about taking a shower outdoors. She felt a little nervous, always afraid that someone was peeking at her. It would be best to have a shower curtain.

"Meow meow is not short of water: I want it!"

She didn't look at how the world was discussing her. She traded with Yueyue for a pair of waterproof hiking shoes, opened the system information icon, and checked her new draws.
