Starting Off With Just A Tiny Bit Of Luck

Just as Yu Miaomiao picked up her phone to check the game link message, her vision went dark, and in the blink of an eye, she found herself inside a post-apocalyptic survival game — Desert Surviv...

Chapter 215: Survival at Sea Day 4 (1) Mantis Shrimp

Chapter 215: Survival at Sea Day 4 (1) Mantis Shrimp

The moment he surfaced, Yu Miaomiao saw Xiaoguai fighting with the two white birds he had seen on the first day. The battle ended only when the turret roared.

Her float was intact and there were no other boats nearby, so she was overthinking it.

It was just some ordinary gull-like strange birds harassing her ship.

At this moment, she just received Chenchen's message.

"Chenchen: Meow God, I'm ready. Call me anytime if you want to leave."

Yu Miaomiao took a picture with the thermal detector and saw two human thermal images 3 kilometers away. It turned out that she was really worrying too much.

Why would I suspect Chenchen? Because the timing of the hidden information I knew and Chenchen's appearance was too coincidental.

Trust still takes time.

"Meow Meow is not short of water: Let's go, let's drive to the place we agreed on before."

When Yu Miaomiao climbed onto the float, she saw that the huge seahorse had been eaten by Xiaoguai until only half was left. Xiaoguai was probably tired from fighting the white bird. When Xiaoguai saw her joining the battle, he lay on the linen mat on the float with his round belly puffed out, sticking out his tongue to rest.

The more she looked at Xiaoguai, the more he looked like a dog.

After controlling the ship to move forward, Yu Miaomiao sent a message to Hua Bie asking how to get out without an expedition card.

I got a reply from the other party very quickly.

"Hanabie: You can only return the same way you came."

You can only go back the same way, so that's why the expedition card is so important. In addition to being able to quickly reach the expedition site, you can also leave at any time when you encounter difficulties. If you go back on your own, you can only hope for the best.

Yu Miaomiao touched Xiaoguai's head and thought that this was a bit difficult.

"Meow Meow: If you're going on an adventure soon, could you please invite me along? I have something to tell you."

The news Iris told Yu Miaomiao did not say that she could not tell other people. She even intended to persuade Hua Bie to join. Hua Bie was the first person to possess a repair card. If the system wanted to send someone to take action against the person who possessed the card, Hua Bie and Lulu might be in danger. She had to find a way to notify them.

It’s definitely not possible to say it in writing, it can only be done in person.

She stuffed the strip of cloth into Nana's hand the same way she stuffed it into his next time.

It will probably be four or five days before we meet, so it’s best to inform everyone as soon as possible.

She always felt that the mastermind would be hiding in a powerful force, so that she could get more information, tell them earlier, and help analyze it together.

"Hua Bie: It's probably tomorrow morning. We're planning an ambush tonight."

"Meow Meow: Ah, be careful, is there anything I can help you with?"

"Hua Bie: Not at the moment. I'll trouble you again if I need anything. Don't worry too much about us. It's easy to run into passersby while surviving at sea these days, so be careful."

"Meow Meow: Well, I also met a survivor. He seems to be a nice person. If you trust him, I might meet you together."

Hua Bie was slow for a moment before sending the message.

"Hua Bie: People's hearts are unpredictable in the apocalypse. Many men will do anything to achieve their goals. You must be extra vigilant."

Yu Miaomiao: ...

The end of the world is indeed a test of people's hearts, but why does Hua Bie seem to hate men? Is it because he suffered from those bad men in the Tiandihui before?

"Meow Meow is Not Short of Water: Do you know the Meow Meow Sheng Wei group? It was formed by Api some time ago without my knowledge. The girl I brought with me is the deputy group leader. I think she should be trustworthy. When we meet and spend more time together, I think it might be better to establish my own base to cope with the future apocalypse survival."

Girls...

"Hua Bie: Oh, I know this group. I once met two people in it at the entrance of an adventure zone. When I heard they were in this group, I gave them the adventure zone and went somewhere else."

"Hua Bie: I definitely believe in the people you trust. If you want to set up a base, I support you."

Yu Miaomiao explained it so clearly because she was going to take Chenchen with her in a few days. If she rashly brought someone with her, she had to make arrangements in advance.

However, Yu Miaomiao didn't expect that her idea of ​​setting up a base would be supported by Hua Bie so quickly. She thought Hua Bie was very lonely and preferred to be alone.

"Meow Meow: Okay, then wait for you to call me tomorrow morning and we'll meet up."

Open the system notification, which contains the things you just got from the treasure.

The last drawing is a good underwater piece!

She quickly clicked to use it.

[System prompt: Player Meow Meow is not short of water and has unlocked the crafting of Frog Flippers. Wisdom value increased by 1.]

She was just worried about not having anything to help her swim underwater, and now it's here.

The jet device can be used underwater, but because of the large resistance, the gas will run out after a short time in the water and needs maintenance and refilling for durability.

[Name: Multiple Short-Distance Teleport Card (3/3)

Level: 35

Introduction: 咻咻咻

Properties: After use, the user and the items held in their hands will be teleported to the location 60 minutes ago. If there is no item at the location 60 minutes ago, or the teleportation distance exceeds 10 kilometers, the use will fail.

There are quite a lot of restrictions on its use, so it is teleported multiple times.

This thing is more suitable for fighting in the sea. It can dive a lot and return to the water immediately when there is insufficient oxygen.

Using this card, she must also return any extra items to her backpack or throw them away, such as monster corpses or other items.

Even if you have both hands on the monster, it will probably fail.

By the way, is Xiaoguai considered an item?

If it was an adventure area, and she used this prop card, and she touched Xiaoguai with both hands, could she take it back to the place where she was an hour ago?

Give it a try next time you go on an adventure!

Anyway, if Xiaoguai is not considered an item, it should be considered a failure in use.

She took out the last high-end waterproof suit and took a look at it. It was a very tight space suit. The material did not look like it could be made with existing materials. It was an item that could not be placed on the repair table.

It should be a disposable item, just like invisible clothing. It only says "absolutely waterproof" on it, but there is nothing special about it.

No, one thing is that this clothing will come in handy when there is a lot of rainfall in the future.

As she continued to move forward, she started making frog flippers and gave Lulu another drawing in the form of 5 motion sickness pills.

When the waves are big, Xiaoguai has to rely on taking medicine to stand steady and not vomit.

The example flipper picture looks like a stretchy flipper connected to the thigh. During the production process, sand needs to be melted into a transparent liquid material, and then molded into a flipper-like device together with a plastic block.

The formed item did not trigger luck. When it was being made, the size of the flipper looked very small, but the moment it was held in her hand, it became the size of her foot.

Yu Miaomiao took it out and tried it out. He paddled it twice in the water and it stirred up a lot of splashes. It seemed that it could provide a lot of kinetic energy for moving forward in the sea.

It was dark before I could even try twice.

After dark, you can no longer drive.

She was lucky before and didn't encounter any special circumstances.

But others are not so lucky.

Some people say that at night, when a boat is sailing, it will inexplicably hit a reef. Not only will the buoyancy board break, but the people will also be surrounded by clumps of seaweed, and they will no longer be able to move.

That person was able to survive because he had an expedition card in his hand, which he immediately passed on, made multiple life jackets and new floats, and swam the distance to safety by cutting grass all the way.

The survivor theory is that you cannot trust everyone who speaks out because they are all survivors. She was not sure whether this was a distress situation at sea at night, but based on the statements of people in more than ten posts, they all ran aground after sunset, so she chose to stop the boat.

At this moment, the sea became calm.

After repairing her combat equipment, Yu Miaomiao made four pairs of flippers and five small oxygen cylinders, she started practicing the turtle breathing technique directly. She needed to learn the turtle breathing state in the swimming posture as soon as possible, so that she could still launch a surprise attack on monsters even if she went into the water.

Before she fell asleep peacefully, she heard Xiaoguai pushing the door open and continuing to eat seahorse meat, accompanied by the sound of "smash, smash" as he ate with relish. The last thought in her mind was that Xiaoguai and the turret were outside the house, as well as the whistle warning.

"Woo woo woo beep beep"

The whistle sounded.

Yu Miaomiao sat up in a second, picked up the sword and rushed out.

What she saw was a white bird pecking at her float, and a strong little cat flapping its wings in the air.

There were already several bodies on the sea surface that had been shot down by turrets and automatic guns, and she collected them one by one.

Xiaoguai at this time seemed to be a little bigger than yesterday. She didn’t know if she was seeing things.

Looking at Xiaoguai who had already caught four white birds, she could be sure of one thing: Xiaoguai was better today than yesterday, and even more flexible and agile.

Could it be that Xiaoguai has evolved again?

Once you enter the sea survival world, you will degenerate, and then evolve step by step?

Is it true that every time the world environment experiences a major change, Xiaoguai has to go back to the previous level and then upgrade again?

It must be very painful. I didn’t see whether □□ tortured her or not, but from being the king of monsters that everyone feared, to being unable to catch even a broken bird, this majestic little bully must have felt uncomfortable psychologically after experiencing several failures in killing monsters.

Now he could catch the white bird in the air again. Every time it jumped, Yu Miaomiao could see that the whole cat was radiant, and its fur looked particularly smooth under the sunlight.

Yu Miaomiao greeted cheerfully, "Good morning, Xiaoguai."

"Meow~"

The seahorse had been eaten by it until only its tail and straw-like mouth were left.

Yu Miaomiao tried but couldn't dismember it. It looked like it was leftover food.

She finally heard Xiaoguai say he was hungry without saying it the first time.

“That’s amazing.”

Yu Miaomiao praises her pet raising style.

She touched Xiaoguai's shiny head, and Xiaoguai immediately wagged his tail and licked her with his tongue.

Yu Miaomiao quickly stopped him, took out a crossbow and shot an arrow to kill the white bird. Then he asked doubtfully, "Wait, are you evolving into a dog?"

"Meow?"

It's still a cat sound, but the behavior is too similar.

Yu Miaomiao stroked Xiaoguai and opened the system.

[Survival at Sea Day 4 06:47 Sunny]

clear?

There is still sunny weather?

What is bad weather on a sunny day?

Since I started surviving at sea, every seemingly harmless weather has a new interpretation behind it. I have never encountered a sunny day.

She looked to see if anyone else had any opinion.

Yu Miaomiao opened a group chat for three people.

"Pangpang: Wow, Sister Miaomiao, I'm so exhausted. I didn't expect that we would be ambushed in return. Luckily, Master Huabie had a backup plan, so we wiped them out in one fell swoop. At first, there were only six people following us, but it turned out to be more than ten. Yingying just asked someone, and it turns out that someone hired someone to kill us. Who is it that went through so much trouble to hire someone to kill us?"

This message was sent at 1 a.m. last night, and Yu Miaomiao quickly sent an inquiry.

"Meow Meow: Are you all okay? Do you want to catch them alive and interrogate them?"

No reply.

Huabie and Lulu's names are still lit up in the friend list. They are fine, so they should still be sleeping.

There was no new news about Iris in the message, but the Trident, which was outsourced yesterday, gave a reply at one o'clock in the middle of the night.

"Hou Hou Bu Xiu: Miao Shen, are you going to make a trident? Too many people were looking for me yesterday. I thought I saw your message, but it was immediately pushed aside by so many other messages."

Yu Miaomiao searched around last night and found that only this person could do it. There was no news for a long time, so she thought the order was cut off. She planned to search or ask again after everyone drew their cards at noon today. Unexpectedly, the other party was too busy.

It turned out that she was not the only one who thought of this fighting method. Making a trident requires two wind organs. If the effect is average, it is better to continue using the horizontal sword.

She remembered that this person also wanted to join Meow Meow Shengwei, and she had answered some adventure strategy questions to him, so she asked him directly.

"Meow Meow is not short of water: Just to ask, do you know how capable this weapon is in the sea?"

"Hou Hou Bu Shue: I heard it's pretty good, and it's a good melee weapon in water. I haven't tried it yet, but if you need it, I can help you."

Never tried it?

"Meow Meow is not short of water: Are there any other powerful weapons in the water?"

"Hou Hou Bu Xiu Sha: We have someone who can make a [torpedo machine], but we have chosen not to make it public. If you need it, we can help you with the production, but we may not be able to deliver it so quickly."

【Name: Torpedo Machine (1/1)

Level: 40

Introduction: Bang Bang Bang

Attributes: Connected to the floating plate via the hull connector, it can launch underwater torpedoes with an attack power of 200 every minute, with a range of 1 km.

She had a lot of defensive items on the sea surface, but none under the sea.

Although the attack power is not strong, it is definitely a good item.

"Meow Meow is not short of water: Can you first make two tridents, and then I will queue up to make two torpedo machines?"

"Hou Hou Bu Qing: Of course, I can, but we're facing a new sea monster today, and there's a lot of them. I might need to defeat them before I can help you. PS, if we're still alive."

"Meow Meow: New? Can you tell me what it is? If I've encountered it before, I can tell you how to attack it."

Especially for seahorses, if you keep relying on piercing the weakest and softest belly of the seahorse, I am afraid that your descendants will be endless.

"Monkeys don't take baths: Have you ever seen a saw-toothed seahorse monster called Meow God? It seems like there's no way we can kill them all. We've already sent two different groups down, but it still hasn't worked."

It really is a seahorse.

The most troublesome thing about sea monsters is that they will constantly attack the ships that humans rely on for survival. If the survivors are not killed, they will die on their own. Unlike in the desert world, as long as you can survive until daytime, the monsters will die naturally.

But everyone says that there seem to be fewer monsters coming at night than during the day.

Yu Miaomiao briefly explained the killing method, focusing on the fact that baby seahorses would appear in her stomach. The other party looked as if he had suddenly realized something and said that he had accidentally killed several of them before, which led to more and more seahorses being killed.

She asked and found out that what he meant by "killing more and more" was that there was originally only one, and he killed 7. Why did she encounter more than 20?

That's strange.

Thinking that someone might hire someone to kill Huabie and the others, she had to speed up the rendezvous.

There was a new person, Nana, in her daily morning report. After seeing Yue Yina's game nickname, her nervous heart relaxed a little. She didn't expect Nana to be so brave just after arriving in the apocalypse.

The other party simply replied, "Good morning, I'm busy."

Yu Miaomiao looked at the dialog box for three seconds. Could it be that she encountered the same difficulties as Hua Bie?

Thinking that there were two people following her.

"Meow Meow is not short of water: Chenchen, are you awake? If not, I may have to leave first. I have something urgent to do."

As soon as Yu Miaomiao turned on the push button, she received a reply.

"Chenchen: Is this about the murder last night?"

Hiring a killer? ?

Why would she know that too?

Yu Miaomiao quickly searched the forum of this server and found no one had mentioned it. However, when she opened the cross-server forum, there were only a few posts, and a post titled "Intimate Killing Service" appeared among them.

Can killing people be considerate?

She opened it and saw what a thoughtful gesture it was.

The poster is a person from an external server. The post has the poster's nickname and the corresponding server name. For example, this poster is 'Find does not exist-5'.

The post says that if you have any killing needs, you can contact the poster. The cross-server killing team provides the best killing service. Poor people, don’t come here to seek a sense of existence.

It's really ridiculous that the most sincere words of service are written on the front, but the words "poor guy, get out of here quickly" are written on the back.

Killing service, she immediately thought of the base team of the murderer, could it be them?

No, she saw Lulu was talking about the Tiandihui.

Could it be that Yang Haotian was also colluding with the murderer? No, it was the bad guys in this server who found the evil organization in the foreign server.

It doesn't seem surprising that bad guys shake hands with bad guys.

Who is the murderer?

If it was Yang Haotian, he wouldn't have to "hire someone" and could just send someone directly.

Could it be that Chenchen knows some hidden secret?

"Meow Meow is not short of water: Do you know what?"

"Chenchen: Don't be angry if I tell you this, Meow God. My friend is from the Tiandihui, but she's definitely a good person. She also dislikes Yang Haotian, but she hasn't quit the guild yet because she hasn't used up all her contribution points and doesn't want to waste the sunk costs."

There are more than 6,000 members in the Tiandihui now. They can't all be bad people. Yu Miaomiao won't lump them all in one place.

"Meow Meow is not short of water: Then what?"

"Chenchen: A few days ago, someone was asking about the Flower God. My companions didn't take it seriously, but yesterday, Yang Haotian actually sent someone to ask everyone one by one, saying that anyone who could provide any useful information would be rewarded with 10 contribution points. However, to get 10 contribution points, you need to turn in 100 pieces of iron ore. And that was on the tenth day of desert survival, because we haven't turned in any in a long time. If it were today, we'd probably have to turn in at least 1,000 pieces of iron ore to get 10 contribution points. A single piece of useful information is worth so many contribution points. We all found it strange. Remember in the desert world, I finally passed the level thanks to the Flower God's guidance. That's why I asked my companions to find out what was going on."

There is no further sentence after this.

So what's going on?

After waiting for five minutes, Yu Miaomiao was about to send a message to ask about the situation when the ship's sensor sent another warning sound. Xiaoguai angrily "woofed" threateningly at the bottom of the sea.

Yu Miaomiao scanned it with the biosensor.

"1 meter, mantis shrimp."

The float did not cause any impact, so why was there an early warning alert that even Xiaoguai could notice?

Is it possible that they attack ships in a different way? People can't feel it?

At this time, the sea breeze was pleasant and the sea surface was very calm, with only a few ripples spreading out from under her float.

What are these shrimp doing underwater?

If a torpedo machine had been installed at this time, the defense would probably have begun.

If you want to know the truth now, you have no choice but to jump in.

Hey, she could actually see what was happening under the water.

It was clear where the seaweed was and where the dark purple reefs were, but there were no monsters.

Is this a sunny day?

After putting on her diving gear, she dived into the sea again.
